A tiny thing that could do a lot of good for diversity of fund managers (if others join): for our next fund, I’m not committing to any level of “GP commit” and will do the work to explain to LPs why that’s okay. Let me explain
GP = General Partner = the folks who actually do the investing and get the upside of the fund. Is customary in funds like VC to require GPs to commit +/- 2% of the total fund themselves. Want to raise a $100m fund? ~$2m of your own cash is table stakes
Early stage investing is long-term illiquid asset class, putting millions into your own fund requires a $10m+ net worth *minimum* to make any sense. This is a HUGE barrier to aspiring managers who don’t come from wealth.

I can't over-emphasize this enough for folks at the earliest stage of building your SaaS. Put the application on a subdomain like app.your-product[dot]com and have your main .com be an easy to use CMS marketing site like Wordpress or Webflow. So annoying to unwind after the fact.
Unless you plan to be a solopreneur forever, do not use some fancy pants CMS that lives inside your app framework. At some point you will delegate your marketing pages/blog and you want a widely used CMS and to not have to `git push` to deploy changes to your FAQ page
Your app UI framework may come with a bunch of components that look like they could make a landing page. If this is a *business* and not an art project, *do not use your app UI framework for a landing page* - use a boring CMS, find a good enough theme, and tweak it. Trust me.

Continuing with our experiments in radical transparency, today we are publishing a draft of @earnestcapital's long and near-term investment thesis with the hopes of continuing to get great suggestions and critiques. It's a >10k word doozy so will tweetstorm some highlights here👇
The investment memo starts at a high level view of big changes happening in the market for software and software-enabled entrepreneurship and drills down successively into key drivers and our specific strategy to capitalize on these trends and work with great founders.
The high level starts with a piece by @ganeumann that first put the pieces together for me on the key changes happening in tech that are powering the tremendous response we've seen to @earnestcapital. The transition to the Deployment Phase of software.
